kpanel runs...but i want it to run in enlightenment..but...

When I type in @ the command prompt 'kpanel' it says that it is not found. I am typing in kpanel because i want it to run in enlightenment. But when I run kde kpanel does appear and work fine. I can get kdesktop running in kde...@ the kde site it says you can run kpanel in a non-compliant window manager..help!

It could be that the shell is unable to find kpanel in its path list. What you need to do is find out where kpanel is located by using one of these commands whereis or locate . Then when you want to run kpanel , just type in the complete path to kpanel ( example: /bin/kpanel ) at the shell prompt.

when i was runing a beta for KDE2 it was located in '/opt/kde2/bin/', which is not in the default PATH normally. KDE must add this directory to PATH when it runs...

So when you want to run it in another environment, either type the full path to the file, or (if you wished) you could add the path to the bin directory to PATH by editing ~/.bash_profile

FWIW, and IIRC, the command to run kpanel is actually kicker .

Try typing that in at your command prompt, let me know how it goes <g>
